Well done the whole team. <em>Jerry</em> Welcome to your new favourite red - our Rude Reserve Rouge is soft, smooth and intensely fruity and guaranteed to become a wine rack essential. A full, fruity red sourced from the Domaine de Cassagnau near Limoux in the heart of the Languedoc region, this is a blend of Syrah, Grenache, Merlot and a splash of Cabernet Sauvignon chosen for us by expert blender Yvan Meyer.

The Producer

Family-owned Domaine de Cassagnau is situated in the heart of the Languedoc region, due south of Carcasonne. The success of the estate has very much relied on the women of the family, with Berthe Abet in charge of the domaine for six decades and through two world wars. A doctor by profession, Jacques inherited the estate from his mother, Berthe's daughter Jacqueline, and continues the family business with wife Collette. More Domaine de Cassagnau wines

Tom Cannavan Review

Don't just take our word for it; here's what wine writer Tom Cannavan has to say:

"From the Languedoc in the south of France, like its white partner in the Rude Wines range it is a clever blend, with local grapes Syrah and Grenache and the big two of Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The result is a very useful 'house red' equally at home with a lasagne or a steak, and aromatic with kirsch and blackberry before a nicely-fruited palate. This is a fruit-forward red, soft with creamy texture and enough tannin and acidity in the background to nicely match the sweet and ripe black fruits that show just a touch of spice into the finish."

The Region

The estate produces red, white and rose styles within the Limoux area in the foothills of the Pyrenees and the warm, sunny Mediterranean climate also benefits from the fresher Atlantic breezes that work their way inland. The choice of grapes varieties is a meeting of these dual elements, with Syrah and Grenache representing the Languedoc and Cabernet and Merlot on the Atlantic side. More Languedoc wines

Definitely a favorite

We have tried this wine a few times now as part of mixed cases, and it's become our go-to favourite. It has never disappointed, with food or on its own. Smooth, with just the right amount of fruitiness - neither overpowering nor too delicate - and every sip transports us from dreary weather to memories of summer and warm, delicious locations. We love it!!

Lovely juicy, smooth wine with a hint of oak on the nose.

First Rude wine tasted, excellent

Just back from France Pays D'Oc area, to find your two reserves.This red truly excellent and value for money. Will order a case as our standard red. Well done the whole team.

Roasted Tomato & Garlic Pasta

Tomato based sauces match well with light or medium bodied reds with high acidity which square up to the acidity in the tomatoes and make both food and wine taste fruitier. Try a classic French red from the Pays d'Oc or fruity New World style with little or no oak ageing. Full recipe

Lamb Sosaties

Sweet and spiced South African lamb kebabs with herby potatoes screams open fire and red wine, so give a Southern French red with lots of fresh fruit and spice a go. Perhaps try our Rude Reserve Rouge? Full recipe

Salami Pizza

The tomato sauce on the pizza needs a light-ish red, while the smoky, spiced meat needs a wine with lots of soft fruit. Definitely a partner for our Rude Reserve Rouge by Domaine de Cassagnau.
